Chapter 4353 The army went to the sea and returned south
The corner of Liu Yu's mouth curled up slightly, he looked at these people calmly, and said: "Excuse me, in Jiankang City, we have recruited more than 20,000 men recently. They are all well-trained and experienced in battles. A veteran?"
Xie Hun was at a loss for words, but Chu Xiuzhi said, "Nearly half of the newly recruited brave men have fought in battles before and received military training. It is enough for them to lead other untrained people. "
Liu Yu nodded: "That's good, but according to this statement, many villagers and tenant farmers in Wudi also experienced Sun En's Rebellion, fought in wars, and had military experience. After joining the army, can they lead the new with the old? , to form a combat-effective army?”
Now Chu Xiuzhi had nothing to say, her face turned red and she remained silent.
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "General Shen returned to his hometown this time and brought back 5,000 men and horses in three days. Among these 5,000 men, 4,000 had never been on the battlefield. They had only touched a hoe. Farm implements have never held a sword, but with their passion and determination to protect their home and country, they rushed to the capital to help without hesitation. Aren't they afraid of death? Don't they think about protecting their wives and children back home? ?”
Liu Yu's voice was deafening and made everyone's hearts surge. They only heard him continue: "Jiankang is the capital of the Jin Dynasty, and it is also the chokepoint that guards the south of the Yangtze River to the land of Sanwu. Here, it will be difficult for the army of monster thieves to go south to the land of Sanwu. The so-called division of troops to attack the land of three Wu is just talk on paper. If our army of King Qin is concentrated and there is an army of 100,000 stationed in the south of the city, how can there be monster thieves? Divide the excess troops and go south? Defending Kyoto here is to defend your hometown in the land of Sanwu."
Xie Hun gritted his teeth: "What Marshal Liu said makes sense. It was because we didn't know the art of war and we were negligent for a moment. After I go back, I will recruit brave men as soon as possible. However, if the soldiers are not trained and go through battle formations, even if they march, they will not be able to do anything." It is not an easy task. If we want the young men we have recruited to return to Beijing quickly, we must also ask Marshal Liu to mobilize hundreds to thousands of officers and generals. It is best to have about two thousand veterans who can be mixed with the new men. "
Liu Yu said calmly: "So, who does Xie Shangshu plan to lead these new army volunteers?"
Xie Hun glanced at Xi Sengshi and said, "Shilang Xi, do you have any good candidates to recommend?"
Xi Sengshi said quickly: "The official thought that Liu Yi, the governor of Yuzhou and the general of the Wei, had experienced hundreds of battles and had rich experience. He was a famous general in the world, and the property he guarded was spread all over the Sanwu area. He was familiar with all the major families and The wealthy family has a close relationship with it. When the rebellion of Tianshi Dao was suppressed, they also fought in Wudi for many years. If they were to recruit troops here, there is no one more suitable to take charge of the overall situation than him. Although the guards of Jiankang City also have important responsibilities, but It seems more important for Liu Weijun to go to Wu to recruit and train young men."
Liu Yu smiled slightly and turned to look inside the Ancestral Temple: "Liu Weijun, what do you think?"
Liu Yi's voice sounded coldly: "At this time, you want me to go to Wu Di? Mr. Xi, why do you say this?"
Xi Sengshi's expression changed, and he saw Liu Yi dressed in military uniform, slowly walking out of the Ancestral Temple. Meng Huaiyu and Liu Fan lined up on the left and right, followed closely by Zhao Yi, Mao Xiuzhi and other generals, Sun Chu, Yu Qiu Jin and other generals came out, and more than twenty people came at once. Compared with the generals led by Liu Yu, they were no less generous. Only by seeing such a lineup can people understand why Liu Yi He is the second in command of the Beifu Army after Liu Yu.
Xi Sengshi opened his mouth wide and looked at Liu Yi with an incredible look on his face. He didn't understand why Liu Yi, whom he met yesterday, promised to escort him to Wudi and use the excuse of conscription to support himself. But today,
It was a complete change of attitude.
Liu Yi looked at Xi Sengshi and said coldly: "Liu Cheqi has made it very clear just now. The top priority now is to defend Jiankang City. If the city is there, the land of Wu will be safe. If the city is destroyed, the land of Wu will not be safe."
. What we are most lacking now is soldiers, horses, and manpower. Every soldier wants to stay here, so how can we have the spare strength to divide our troops in Wudi? Minister Xi, if it weren't for the fact that you officials are civilians and don't understand military matters,
I think it’s inappropriate to even ask you to go to Wu Di.”
Xie Hun's face turned pale: "But, if there are no soldiers and horses to protect us, how can we go to Wu, and how can we send the brave men who have been recruited?"
Liu Yi sneered and said: "Sir, you all have a large number of guards to protect your servants. At this time, it is not difficult for dozens or hundreds of guards to protect you back to your hometown. As for how to quickly raise funds after returning home,
Ding Zhuang, form a volunteer army, just in time to come in batches with our army returning from the land of Qilu."
As soon as this statement came out, many people were surprised and said: "What, the troops returning from Qilu? What is going on? Are these troops..."
Xie Daoyun's voice, accompanied by the sound of her dragon-headed crutches tapping the ground, sounded from the Ancestral Temple, from far to near, and her thin but strong figure also appeared in front of everyone: "Yes, Marshal Liu conquered Nanyan
, many of the troops that quelled Qilu had gathered in the Laizhou area three days ago, and the more than 200 large ships that our Xie family used to supply the front line and transport grain and grass were exactly what transported these troops. Although there were many of them,
Those who have contracted the disease but are able to march to Laizhou are no longer seriously ill. The first group of people who took the boat to cross south successfully arrived at Kuaiji County last night. They only need to rest for a day or two before heading out.
Be healthy."
A burst of cheers broke out from the crowd, and many people shed tears excitedly: "Great, great, Zheng Yan's army is finally back, we are saved."
Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi looked at each other with ashen faces. They never dreamed that Liu Yu Zhengyan's army would come back from the sea in this way. Now all excuses no longer existed.
Liu Yu looked at Xie Hun and said coldly: "Xie Shangshu, the vanguard of the troops returning from the sea this time is 5,000 troops led by General Xiang Mi. This is just the beginning. The country is in trouble, and reinforcements from all directions are coming, not only Wu
The land is conscripting troops to defend the country. In the land of Qilu, in Jiangbei, in Jingzhou, all the places still controlled by the Jin Dynasty, there are loyal and righteous people who are fighting against thieves in various ways."
"Coming back with Xiang Mi's army, there are also more than a thousand Xianbei's former puppet Yanju armored cavalry. They were once our most terrifying enemies, but now they have surrendered to the Jin Dynasty and are willing to take the initiative to fight against the thieves. These cavalry from the north may
They will be acclimatized, and I hope that after you set off, you will ensure supplies along the way, and you must not let them lose their combat effectiveness in vain!"
